This take is a major skill issue IMO, adding an intermediate “learning” language is just another point of friction, having a language taught properly while incrementally introducing concepts works well enough and allows real results to be achieved quicker as long as you’re starting with an adequate language for the subfield you’re interested in. This is a major motivating factor for learners.

Agree with you Mate. I couldn’t learn C++ but when started learning JavaScript it was a lot easier option.

Actually, I think that BASIC (Beginners All Purpose Instruction Code) is the easiest language to learn with. In fact, that is why it was developed. To teach students how to program. It covers the very fundaments such as variable, arrays, loops, input, and output. I would start there to learn the basics.

I started with C#, but man, I wish I could have started with C++. I find myself slowly learning backward. It started with trying to understand how GC works, then I had to understand how memory allocation, pointers, stacks, and heaps work. It takes me many years to learn all that to write decently fast code. Maybe it was just because I ended up on the performance side of things.

JavaScript is portable too. Python is great, not to be confused with JavaScript.

C++ is fun until you reach OOP. Managing memory there (e.g., constructors) is a very convoluted work; it's like writing code while juggling knives.

Currently going through web dev course (MERN stack) , University teaching C lang, want to go into Cyber Security and cloud computing, and was
About to watch a playlist on bash scripting . I don't know what's happening in my life 😂.

I also learnt python as my first language, I want to be a backend developer, and I use Django for the backend, but now I'm debating on whether I should learn frontend frameworks like react or Vue, so I can increase my chances of getting a job in either areas, or if I should just learn another backend framework like node js and express js and strictly focus on backend. Pls help me, I'm a CS student and I don't know what to do

I started with c++ and this doesn't look very difficult that's why I like it and it is my favorite language and the only language I know

Great Video Vlad!
Do you edit them yourself?

[zeno_]

if you want to be one of the many programmers, go ahead and study python

C is great to learn for 3 to 4 weeks.

Look at cs50.

I started out in BASIC when I was 12. Then C / C++ / Pascal, etc. I've been a profession developer for over 20 years. I mainly uses C#, SQL, etc. My current company has some Python applications that our team has to maintain as well as our normal C# stuff. I cannot wrap my head around Python at all. I can normally fix an issue but it drives me nuts and for that reason I hate Python. I'd rather write assembly, I can understand it better.

I chose Python. I tried C and gave up back in the day so I agree with this video 😂
